The events of tile Km of March in Spain, those of the Jd of.Inly, in Portugal, the rn- tiftrophe.it Naples, necessarily produced, amongst all those who had no eye to the tranquility of nations, a deep sentiment "t in quietude and pain, ami a desire to unite and co-operate to at ort fi" in Europe ill! the e- vils ready tu hurst upon her. It was natural that this delire and this sen timent should In- more lively in tile govein- inents which not lung ago had conquered the revolutionary spirit, «od who saw it nt this day re-appearing triumphant. (t was still more natural that, to repulse it a third time, these governments should have recourse to the menus which tla-v bad so hannilv employed in the memorable ‘■-trur- gle, io which Europe had seen them break the yoke under which it had groaned for twenty years. Everything authorized the hope, that tins union of the principal powers, formed in the midst of circumstances the most critical, crowned with the most brilliant successes, perpetuated finally hv the acts of 1C 14, llllb, and 1CI8—that Ibis union, which has j>i• - pared, founded, and completed the pacifua- tion of (he world, having delivered the con tinent from the military despotism exercis ed by lli*- maiiofthe Revolution, would, in like ni inner, deliver it from a new power, ijot less tyrannical nnd not less disastrous— from the power of crime and of revolt. HjcIi have been the motives and th»oh- jerl of the Congress of Troppau. The first ought to be so generally felt as not to re- qvire a longer explanation : the latter is so honorable and so useful that the wishes of all must, without doubt, accompany tlie Al lied Courts in tiu ir noble enterprize. Tile (ask, which duties and engagements the most sacred impose upon them, is vast and difficult; but favorable presages permit them to believe, that they will b<- able to accomplish it, by acting in the spirit oftbe Treaties, by which they had restored peace to Europe, and established a general alliance among all the European governments. The Allied Powers have availed them selves of an incontestable right, in deckling to take common measures of precaution and restraint (repression j towards states, the confusion or which, wrought by revolt, re g irding it only in the light of an example, would lie an net hostile to all legitimate in stitutions and governments; lo. ards State which.above all, not content with llietr own calamities, seek by their agents to cnmmui.i cate them to other countries, and endeavor ilii-re to iutioduce disorders and insurrec tion. The position and the conduct of these states constitute a manifest infraction of tli covenant, which guarantees to the European governments, with the integrity ufllierter- ritories, the maintenance of those pacific re latio I-, tlie fr-.l i fleet of which is toexrluil ,-ven the idea of tin ir doing each other an injury. ‘This irrefragable fact ought to he the pom! of departure of the Allied ( a hi nets, ill eon sequence, the Plenipotentiaries, who eoulil receive at Troppau the orders of llicir So vereigns, have determined between them and submitted to the deliberations of the courts'll F iris and London, till- principle-to he followed towards states who -iilunit to a violent alteration in the form of Itu-ir interior regime, as well as the means, w lo-tlier of con ciliation or of force, proper t" restore to the t»o-oin of the alliance sm-h of these states as they can exercise a salutary nod ellicacio; agency upon. Ar the Revolution at Naples strikes deep er root every day ; as mi otln-r menace* more sensibly and immediately the tranquility of the neighboring states o’r ran In- rearhi d by ways more direct or prompt, the conven ience and necessity are admitted of making to the Kingdom of tin- Two Sicilies the im mediate application of the principles which have been indicated. lb-fore dijiiii-sing. wilh regard to iiiin. measures efa conciliatory nature, the Sove reign- present at Troppau have addressed to his Sicilian Majesty au invitation to join them at Lavbarn ; a step the only object of which lias been to set free the will of lii« Majesty, and to engage him to interpose hi- mediation between iiis delud* d |ie»iple and the countries whoso repose they com- p| pmmit.

Extract of ■ letter from a gentleman in Rio de Janeiro to lus friend in Wash ington City, d itrd, “ Rio to \J '.rtriRn, Feb. 19. “ H. M. F. Majesty bus at l.-t deri de 1 to send his eldest -nn tu Portugal u itli the title of Constable, and f ill pow ers to grant an amnesty and re-citahlwli (lie royal authority. Thi* determination was undo known on the tltli inst. to the Ministers of England, Austria, I’ru — u and Russia, a* representing, here with the exception of France, the high Allied Powers, and having Imen uiore or les- engaged in producing it. I wa- soon af- terwards informed that the Prim e would leave this as -con a- po--ihle after tin confinement of the Princess, vvhirli wa- expected to take pl.u-e on the ICtli, ami mav now he look'-1 fur every day. On a-kmg whether -he would accompany her liushand, I was answered, that, it -lie insisted upon it, the King would not oppose her wishes, hut that lie would retain her children, as pledges to tin- country for the permanency of the throne among them. H'li it eli'ei t however, the Kt.vuLt riov vr Raiiia, ofwhich we have just heard, may have upon these deter minations, i« not known, \* tho Kin has adopted tlie measure reluctantly, lie may seize the lir-t pretext lor delaying | execution and tiius thwart ail the ad vantages which Count Palmella expected from it. Such, my friend, is the lainco- t.alile stale of things here. As early a- the beginning of Dec. it was known here that Bahia hung upon a thread anJ no thing lias been done since that to strength en the bonds which unite the different parts oft hi- country*. The consequence is, that Halim shook off these faeble bonds on flic Cth inst. and i« now under a provisional government, which propo ses to recognize no othrr power hut that of the constitution which is to he framed for Portugal. The Revolution wits brought about by the Portuguese regiments, and onlv cost the lives of a few madmen, who endea vored to check it. The King's Govern or, count Palmas, was called to preside over the newly formed government, but declined on the grouud ofthe oath which lie hail taken to Iiis Majesty. The o- llier members of the government were, itissaid.ehicfly lawyers, and men known for then* talents. Since hearing of this Revolution, a considerable anxiety begins to manifest it-elf here, hut apathy has become so habitual n slate, that the King will, it i- •nppnsod, sutFer him-elf to lie surprized here, a- he lus been elsewhere. We have three regiments of Portu guese troops j., garrison at this port, who are know n to eiilprt.ini sentiments similar to ihove of their brethren at Il-ahin.— The government is justly afraid of them, and has either not the means or courage to send them away . A middle course was taken, which was to a-k of them whetln-r they wanted to return to Por tugal ; ami as they almost unanimously expre—ed that wish,nnd no preparati me are making Iw sati fy it, tbev are in ire uneasy and riper fur revolt than they were before. The native troops which are inferior to them in n lmher and dis cipline, would not alone restrain tln-in ; a.id they do not look for opposition from the Militia, vvlnrh, like tlu m-eki *, are interested in a ■ hinge. To render tin King's situation still more alarming, he has a ministry composed of three peisoRs who cm agree upon nothing ; is »ur •minded by sycophant-, who are not e wi-e enough to he afraid, nnd shew it ; and, what is worst of all. has loin-ell in unconquerable repugnance for tfie in stitutions which In- people ask of him.— I fear that troubles await him.

The desertion from the Span iard- to him was immense ; the regiment ofNumannfl, of GOO privates, besides of ficers, came over in a body to him.— There is no doubt but lie must have en tered Lima before this day.

Our cor respondent states ilia private letter, that the duties on entering and clearing vessels in Maracaybo, since the declaration of its inde pendence, are reduced 100 percent. The patriot general Urdoneta arrived at that place from Ureneda on the 8th March with 800 men—and it is supposed that there will he, ir. the course of one month, at least 40()0 troops to defend Maracaybo against any at tack ofthe Spaniards. Accounts from St. Martha state that Com modore Amy lately died at Haranquilla, but the manner of Iiis death was differently re ported. Gen. Labutu, the governor of St. Martha, during its former short lived inde pendence, was also said to have died at that plare. Great tranquility reigned in St. Martha,and in every other place belonging to the republic, where also considerable commerce was carried on with the inferior. An ordinance of the Spanish Cortes ti-d been communicated to tin* Captain General ofthe island of Porto ltico, directing him tn abandon the use of all subterranean dunge ons and places injurious to health, existing in tilt prison*, barracks and forts—that all the prisons shall In* situated so as to receive natural light ;—that no chains shall hr put upon the prisoners, and that the instruments which have hitherto been in use to allliet and torture ihemhu immediately destroyed. The Gazette of Bogota ol the 7th January rontxiti- the following intelligence : DEPARTMENT OF (JCITO. The major Antonio Munos informs his ex cellency tin* vice-president, in a dispatch dat ed (hi: 8th December, that the province of Cuenca has proclaimed its independence of Spain, and appointed a supri nn- junta—that in consequence of the approach of the expe dition sent hv the Patriot Junta of Guaquil against (juilo, the districts of Amh.ato, Rio hamlin, (juaranda nnd Tncunga having like wise declared themselves independent—and that of those districts 7001) men have enlist - nd themselves in the army of the Lihv-iator that these combined troops were in the bn Ri gave no right or title to the. throne, with many other points equally inadmissible in all monarchical governments. inn*, hovvevei, is this king iri the hands „f ,| lv ,|. Ii, than he turns Ins hack upon his own so lemn declarations, and advises his subjects, by proclamation, to assent to a conatitution, dictated in fact by the allies. This will na- turally excite in the minds of the Spaniard^ alarming apprehensions with regard to their own monarch, whose treachery and ingrati tude they have already witnessed, and whose confidence they have*right, from tire evi dence of Iiis own example, to question and to doubt. If the point in issue between the contending parties, was merely whether Na ples should he subjected or not, it would not admit of an argument. Rut let it lie notic ed that the very papers brought by the last arrival, and which announce the hostile ad vances of the Austrians, announce also, the frightful tumults in Spain,and the impor tant change that lias taken place ill Portu gal. The Portuguese have appointed a re gency as a preliminary step tn the renuncia tion of aoyalty altogether. Spain seems al ready disposed to follow this example, for the Spanish king is at present nothing more than the shadow of departed royalty. Thus mysterious does Divine Providence bring about his purposes. The allies are now setting fire to a train of combustible materials scattered over Europe, that has been long prepared for explosion—they do not know tlie tremendously offensive strength of the engine which they are employing lor defensive purposes only. Tlie people of Europe,-have been taught for a long time past, that a government formed and consti tuted by them, is the only legitimate form of government. Two revolutions, that of Spain and Naples, have been accomplished already by military interference. Now,when the soldiers of the allied powers are com manded |i> repress such revolutions, they will learn even from the conquered Neapo litans, the object of their errand—they will learn that they overturn a government ac complished by military force—they will he made sensible of the power that they hold ill tlie'o- "»n hands, and they mill carry tlicso ideas along with them to the respective go vernments by whom they are fed and disci plined and paid. The consequence wil) probably, tie that the -affairs of Spain and Portugal nod Naples, will be acted over on a large sralenntlie Continent. The various parts of this European tragedy have only yet been put into rehearsal.—,1/orn. C'Aron. ENGLAND. The interests of England would lead her to wish for a war in Europe. 1.

These arc by ux this day, in consequence of nor natural union, en twined willi the repuMir of Columbia government and it* l.uv are those hy whirl) vve are ruled and made happy. Absolutely ■In we disavow the Spanish government, nli serving such of it* law* only whereby vve were governed, ns are jarring with our hide pend' ore end system.' Glory then to the Almighty, il.iil ye fathers of tin- country Long live the Republic of Columbia. ClraCoa, March 17. Hi* Majesty’s brig Mercury, Cant. De Quartel, arrived trout a cruize on rMuoday last. By the arrival of a veasel last Tuesday from La Guayra, we learn that the period of the armistice is prolonged, but to what ex lent we know not. Two deputies of general Bolivar arrived at Oararras.and were receiv ed with the greatest cordiality. A guard of honor has hern assigned to them, and they will in ten day* proceed to Spain. The ob ject of their embassy is not yu-t ascertained hut it i* presumed that the aiknowltilg ment ofthe Columbian independence is tin leading feature of their instruction: The advices from abroad, by the late ar rivals, only tend to confirm mure strongly the opinion heretofore anil often expressed, that a dark and bloody cloud hangs over K. rope. There is aluiudanl evidence that the Austrians are in full march fur the Nespuli tan territory—that serious disturbances have been excited iu Spain, nnd that Portugal is put under the government of a regency. It worthy of notice, that the Spaniards be gin already, (and undoubtedly they will cun tinns- j to h el a jealousy of Ilnur monarch, ii proportion as the allied powers assume an hostile allitudr. Perhaps it is not going too fir to say that the advance oftbe coalesced sovereigns into Naples, willoeeasion the loss ol not only Ferili,land’s crown, hut of lus head also. He wa* invited with the King of Naples, to assist at the conference at Lay- bach. The King of Naples was allowed tn depait from In* dominion* for that purpose ; but previo is to Iiis departure, lie made the most solemn promises, that all his exertions should In- directed at the conference, to- w ai ds the establishment ol a gnvi-rmnent for Ills kingdom, entirely popular—-he pledged hiuisell to rujiport the principle that mere withdraw her Irom the plans she is pur suing nn the Caspian, and in Persia and Asia Minor. D. It vs mild afford England, as in her neu* tral state, in 1*111 and 17»2, time to pro si-cute her ambition in Afghanistan, and to constitute that powerful nation and liar rier against Russia on the side of Persia. G. By reserving herself and profiting by the conflicts of other powers, tlie would carry on her steady policy to engross tho commerce of South America—while the other powers were wasting themselves. 7. And if utter replenishing hr r coffers hy two or three years neutrality, an opening should offer to afford her any means of aggrandizement, she might come in with her fresh fleet and army, and liaving a'- readv access hy treaty with Turkey, to the Eiixinc, she might undertake to pre scribe bounds to tile Russian encroach ments in Asia. The statesmen nf Europe are not ignorant of this policy—and that knowledge, unques tionably represses the energy which tlu-y at first displayed. Austria burrowed of Eng land sir mill: me of pound* sterling in 1793 , which has never been repaid—her paper currency is SS per rent, tieiuw metallic par j and this is the power that pretends to march 80,000 men to Naples—into a country, that Cur military defence is hy nature superior to Spain. Should the people only possess the same spirit and constancy, nf w hich there appears to be no more cause to doubt, than of any other people aroused from the lethar gy of despotism, to a knowledge of their right tola: free—the Austrians must rt-liro in less than three months.—.lurora. France has cause to rejoice in hrr Finan cial situation. Tin Revenue for the current year is stated at .C 37,000,000; the expen diture at £30,763,000, being a surplus of £ 237,000.
